What's your favorite cereal?
What's the grossest cereal?

TonyaCody06 · August 2013

I love Blueberry Morning (esp when pregnant) but can't seem to find it anywhere anymore!

tealowl · August 2013

Yum: Cinnamon Toast Crunch
Gross: Oreo O's - do they still make that? It was nast.

EmilyA724 · August 2013

I am a cereal mixer. I love to mix different kinds to create me own new kind. Right now my mix is Cinnamon Life, Chocolate Chex, and Oh's (I'm on a sweet cereal kick). One of my favorite mixes of all time is honey nut cheerios, corn flakes, and bananas. Man I love cereal.

My least favorite kind is Raisin Bran because I hate raisins.

marajay6 · August 2013

I hardly eat cereal anymore. And since all my favorite childhood cereals are trying to be healthier by now including whole wheat/grains, it is gross. Definitely not the sugary, deliciousness that I remember!

tealowl · August 2013

Yum: Lucky Charms
Ewwww: Honey Combs

God, I miss eating cereal.

duncs107 · August 2013

::runs in to scream I HATE CEREAL WITH A PASSION::

mmb248 · August 2013

YUM: Fruit Loops

Gross: Anything with shredded wheat.

ksuRN09 · August 2013

Favorite: Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Fruity Pebbles (yes, I'm a child)

Gross: @tealowl I'm with you, Honeycomb is nasty. I also am not a fan of Grape Nuts.

I'm sad that you didn't like Oreo O's, teal. I loved those and no they don't make them anymore

ArmyWife0623 · August 2013

I don't eat it often, but when I do I love honey nut, special k with yogurt bits, or one with oats and nuts
I HATE coco puffs and the reeces ones!

von1976 · August 2013

Confession: I don't really like cereal.

But when I eat it, I go for something like Kashi GoLean Crunch. That shit is gooooood.

Pretty much every other cereal I've eaten since I became an adult makes me ill. The worst offender is Cinnamon Toast Crunch. That shit is foul.

DEAD. TO. ME.

abbyful · August 2013

No cereal for me! We try to stick to eating mostly paleo/primal.

I used to always buy Raisin Nut Bran, Corn Flakes (I would add sugar), or Honey Bunches of Oats.

von1976 · August 2013

@tealowl Sorry, gurl. Hubs like Cap'n Crunch--I buy the store brand bags like they're going out of style. He will honestly eat a bowl of that shit for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if I'm not there to stop him. (It's actually pretty disgusting.)

KingLED · August 2013

Best: Raisin Nut Bran! I can't eat it anymore, but it's still the best. I'll eat the Malt 'O Meal version of fruity pebbles once in a while and there's a store brand version of Reece's PB cereal that's GF and I'll eat it when I want sweets, but that's pretty much it.

Worst: Honey Smacks

@TonyaCody06 - That used to be my favorite cereal hands down; however, like you - I cannot find it anywhere anymore.

Favorites: Frosted Mini-Wheats, Rice Krispy Treats Cereal or Peanut Butter Captain Crunch

Grossest: Fruity Pebbles - that stuff is nasty and it turns to baby mushy in the bowl instantly.

We must be married to the same person.

Bleh, he eats cereal so much. Yucky.

von1976 · August 2013

I have another cereal confession: I don't like milk, not even in cereal. I use unsweetened almond milk instead.

RedInLove · August 2013

Favorite: I love Fruity Pebbles; I often eat Cheerios and Special K

Grossest: Grape Nuts

SkeeterMom08 · August 2013

Favorite: Kashi Triple Berry Crunch with added blueberries
Least Favorite: Grape Nuts.

jenb_99 · August 2013

I like most cereal and I go through phases, but I always come back to plain old regular Cheerios. They make a great snack, and they have a neutral flavor so they satisfy my sweet and savory cravings.

Krave cereal is DISGUSTING.

Only in the last few years have I been able to deal with milk in cereal. I've always (and still do on occasion) eaten it with water. *hangs head in shame*

herecomesthesun · August 2013

@TonyaCody06 I haven't seen Blueberry Morning in ages- I lived on it in college.

Fav: Honey Graham Os, Cracklin' Oat Bran, Corn Bran

Worst: Fruit Loops or Fruity Pepples and I do not like any chocolate flavored cereals either.

True story: My parents were health freaks so the only cereals in our house were All Bran, Grape Nuts, Corn Flakes, and Bran Flakes. Cheerios was even off-limits because it had a lot of salt. Once we convinced my dad to buy Lucky Charms and none of us liked it.

KristaU831 · August 2013

yum: oreo o's.... but since they don't make those anymore, cocoa puffs or special k with chocolate.

ew: fruit loops or any fruity cereal. fruity cereal + milk = vomit comet

OMG, that gif is hysterical. I very nearly spit Diet Dr Pepper on my computer screen.

I hate milk. I eat my cereal dry, always have, always will!

I'm a biggggg cereal fan! Only thing I don't really like is shredded wheat. But every since making the switch to gluten free, I've been limited to boring cereals

karmajupiter · August 2013

Best: Reece's Puffs or PB Cap'n Crunch
Worst: Grape Nuts. Barf.

TattedLoisLane · August 2013

Cap'n Crunch or Honey nut Cheerios is tied for the best.

Worst: Anything that gets soggy within the first minutes of eating. Soggy cereal is sooo gross.

yvanehtnioj · August 2013

I fucking love cereal so much. I would eat it morning noon & night. When I was single I would eat it for dinner regularly. It's impossible to choose one. Chocolate Cheerios, Corn Chex, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Frosted Mini Wheats, Frosted Flakes, BOO BERRY, COUNT CHOCULA

Sadly I cannot eat 90% of cereals anymore cause I have celiac.

Worst cereal is Grape Nuts. It's my husband's favorite but that makes it easier for me to not be tempted when I see it in the pantry.

ally510 · August 2013

Favorites: Life and Honey Bunches of Oats with almonds

Worst: Grapenuts

Same here! I HATE milk. And almond is so superior to soy

dragonfly711 · August 2013

Best. As a kid it was always fruity or chocolate pebbles. Still love them but don't get them often.
I have to have cereal every morning. Usually it is either Cheerios or Special K w chocolate pieces.

Dislike captain crunch!!!

EmilyA724 · August 2013

Could eat boxes of: Cheerios, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Grapenuts, Cracklin' Oat Bran

I LOVE Cracklin' Oat Bran! When I was younger my parents used to call it dog food (I don't know why) and I didn't know the real name of it. When I was at day camp I brought it as a snack and the other kids asked me what I was eating so I told them dog food...no one would be my friend after that...

AllyTales · August 2013

I don't eat much cereal, because it leaves me hungry.

But I love frosted flakes. Or anything with sugar, really.

Shredded wheat is garbage.

Lola825 · August 2013

Ohhh where do I begin? I LOVE cereal, my butt grows just by looking at it usually because I eat like 4 servings at once. But, I still love it.

Best: Honey Nut Chex, Lucky Charms, Special K (With a banana), Raisin Bran, Cap Crunch, Kix (Gah I love kix), Frosted Flakes, Cinn Toast Crunch (lets be serious, I eat that straight out of the box)!

Worst: Grape nuts unless dry, then I love them. Shredded wheat, Honey Bunches, those rice puff things, I can't remember what they're called but those are GROSSSSSS.

TonyaCody06 · August 2013

@HereComesTheSun & @MMason12 I just looked it up and Amazon has it for a whopping $9 a box! Geez - no way!

I have been able to find it at some Target locations but it is hit & miss

I came home from the grocery store the other day without my DH's favorite cereal - Special K with Berries. It wasn't on sale and for the large box we buy it's $3.99 a box. I told him sorry, I refused to pay $4.00 for a box of cereal he eats in 1.5 days. I agree with you @TonyaCody06 that as great as it is, I would never pay $9 a box for it!

Our local grocery store has a store brand cereal that is supposed to be a knock off of Blueberry Morning, but when I tried it they didn't even come close to what Blueberry Morning tastes like.

ErikaLynn75 · August 2013

What's your favorite cereal? Cap'n Crunch. I'm allergic to soy, so most grown-up cereals are out. I also love Coco Puffs, but sometimes it give me a tummy ache.

What's the grossest cereal? Grape Nuts. I never understood how it qualified as a cereal except the shape of the box it comes in. My dad used to eat them.

Fun fact: My husband eats cereal out of a mixing bowl. It drives me crazy just because it takes up so much space in the dishwasher.

coopsbaby · August 2013

I don't eat cereal as a breakfast food ever, and only like super sugary kid kinds because apparently I'm still 6. And I only eat it dry, straight from the box. I have texture issues with milk making things soggy. Yurk! Although I love oatmeal and malt-o-meal, but again with lots of sweetener.

Faves- Capn Crunch, PB Capn Crunch, Applejacks, cinnamon toast crunch

Yuck- Cheerios, anything bran, anything with fruit, anything chocolate
